7 German Things I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT ANYMORE!! 

Wanted Adventure i can't live without the frikandeln from the Netherlands

When I was in Germany as an exchange student, I really loved the public transportation. It was reliable, on time, and relatively inexpensive. That was 20 years ago, and I still miss it.

das Ding mit dem man die Eier aufmacht heißt Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher, im Ernst!😂

Wanted Adventure Autobahn 😂

Palourdes : a kind of sea-shell that lives on the sea-side rocks in Britanny, France. When I was a kid, some 40 years ago, on vacation in Britanny we used to search for them during low tide and we found plenty. They are a delicacy coocked in garlic butter just like escargots. Nowadays sadly nowhere you can have Palourdes on the menu in restaurants as I experienced last year during my vacation. I have asked the locals and the answer was that they all died. Probably climate change. RIP Palourdes.

genau mein gadanke

Kerstin XYF hat mir ein bisschen die Pipi in die Augen getrieben

It's spargelzeit hahaha like that

oh, das war.... very süß und very emotional ;-)

Arya Droettning Also, ich hab wohl was in die Augen bekommen. Diese Katzenhaare immer.

At one point, I suspected she got paid by "Tempo"...

But she's absolutely right ;) Also lived abroad where they have this super thin tissues and they are not useful at all.

Haha, yeah :DD

ZEWA SOFTIES

She's so cute I blew threw two tissues too. Lol sorry I know that was inappropriate but I had to say it. Lol

byFoxi lol i See what you did there.

literally

Why? Have you got cancer or something?

Agree

I Agree :)

why state the obvious, german efficiency right there :D

there was a little cut in the film which you will notice.. there probably was a reaction which they cut out ;-)

Stummi Immer diese nervtötenden Vorurteile 😂

Evi1M4chine I never said they should make out in front of the camera xD

Tom Triebel echt schlimm

In Anbetracht der Tatsache, dass das metrische System in Frankreich erfunden wurde und inzwischen in allen Ländern bis auf drei verwendet wird, ist es nicht wirklich deutsch.

weil es das auch nur in Deutschland gibt ....

Marie Mustermann was ist das??

Ich hoffe das war Ironie

CakeKing Ich würde es aber in Ländern in denen es kein metrisches System gibt vermissen, Länder wie Myanmar oder die USA.

have fun ^_^

Thanks for teaching me the term "cobblestone street". We don't use a real term for such streets, but that coverage of cobblestones has a nice name. Try that one: Kopfsteinpflaster. :))) Make sure to have an idea how to untie the knot in your tongue before you start speaking out this word. :)

@@cdc962 Try "deutschsprachig"!

I couldn't live without Leberkäse

Quark! ... Oh man I didn't even know how to translate that! Almost forgot it exists and now i _REALLY_ want some quark with fruits T.T

Aedony curd cheese is a translation I think. Quark is also in cheesecakes I think

RADLER IST KEIN ALKOHOL ALKOHOL

Und roten Heringssalat.

Honestly, that is something I've heard many times. Even Germans I've met in America said the same thing. I really need to try German bread someday.

I asked a German foreign exchange student once "What do you miss most about Germany?" "The breads," she replied. She then asked me if we don't have any decent bread in America, and I replied "Sadly, no."

Actually the first thing my sister bought when she came back from her school exchange trip was German full grain bread...hahaha

I am now in Australia for 11 months and I reaaaally miss the German bread. Most Germans do.

We once were on a camping trip in France. When we left, our german neighbors asked if they could buy our remaining german bread. They seemed to need it really badly...

Susanna Lösche Awww 💓

Yep. I've my own Mister German Man as well, definitely my favorite thing in Germany

It made me cringe. This was so Fremdschämen.

seit zwei Wochen beruflich in China, bin ich dankbar dafür (davor war es ziemlich selbstverständlich)

Even in smaller cities with 15000 people you have mostly a bus system which conects you to others parts of the regions Of course it's not a comparison to bigger cities but in other parts of the world something like this doesn't even exists. Most of the time the buses are in good state. In more rual parts of italy or spain is the bus often 20-60 min late and in a pretty bad condition. I hate hhow often geramns moan and moean and moan without thinking that they still have it better compared to rest of the world even compared to modern countries like the US, UK, spain,...etc.

Try living in the Swabian Alps. I swear to you, there are no buses at all. Maybe 2 a day. Maybe. Depends on where you live. I do agree though that they are in good condition.

bin von Norddeutschland.....ländlich hier....Busse überall...beschwere dich bei der CSU...SPD ist besser...lol i am from North Germany....rural here....busses everythere...complain to the CSU ( dominat political partie in Bayern ).....SPD is better ( main partie of my state goverment )...lol

Ich bin im Dorf aufgewachsen wo nur alle paar Stunden Mal ein Bus gekommen ist und der Bahnhof lag über 2 km außerhalb des Dorfes 😂 naja ist trotzdem besser als nichts xD

Andy Lange ich leb im Dorf und es kommt nur der Schulbus und der nächste Bahnhof ist 13 km entfernt und dort fahren jede Stunde 2 Züge in die zwei verschiedenen Richtungen... wenn ich im Sommer ein Eis will oder ins Freibad dann muss ich über 10 km mit dem Rad fahren (das is zwar kostenlos aber nervt trotzdem) also es geht schlimmer 😂

Grüß Gott Genosse!

Grüß Teufel

John Triton ich lebe in Hamburg, hier kann man auch Brezeln im Supermarkt kaufen und zu Hause auf backen

ja brezeln gibts überall aber standartmäßig brezel als frühstück zu sehen ist stärker im süden vertreten

Conny Voß ja hier kann man sich auch welche zum aufbacken kaufen aber ich kenne niemanden der Brezeln zum Frühstück isst

John Triton jetzt schon, ich mache das ab und an,kenne auch ein paar. schön mit Butter.

John Triton we have pretzels in the West 2

she has a store for it.

Ah, now I get it. And I was wondering why she is wearing a t-shirt with a dildo on it...

how can u be germanized in a negative way. TI think that germany is way more social. I discovered that when I visited Rendsburg a little town north in germany

"frisch gebacken oder vom Bäcker" ist eine interessante Alternative.

Melinda Junghans Brezeln zum Frühstück sind aber nur in Bayern üblich

Arian spinnt! Also ich komme aus Hessen und bei uns ist das auch üblich...

Melinda Junghans Ich komme auch aus Hessen (Nordhessen) und kenne niemanden,der Brezeln zum Frühstück isst

Ich finds immer super wie der Wohnort die Perspektive beeinflusst :D Für mich ist alles südlich von Köln Süddeutschland (wo wahrscheinlich alle Brezeln zum Frühstück essen... :P Und die ganzen Dialekte erst... ;) ) Im Norden sind Brezeln auf jeden Fall deutlich weniger verbreitet, weder gefroren oder vom Bäcker.

Agreed. Toast is nice but that's all it is. :)

Error 418 I dunno how Americans can live without bakeries. I need my bakery, where I can buy Schrippen, Baguettes, a delicious brown bread, or even belegte Bio-Stullen, together with a fresh Cappuccino. I want bakeries in NY, I always have to go to Starbucks to buy a sandwich and cappuccino when I'm there - that's not same!!!

germanfoods.org/german-food-facts/german-bread-and-cereals-guide/ you would be able to enjoy more than 300 bread varieties and over 1,200 different bread rolls and baked goods in Germany and that is what I miss about Germany and the wurst and the beer and the cheese!!

XShipper, are you saying there aren't bakeries in America? :o What a nightmare :o

Jeroen Google about 10 years ago I once saw a GERMAN bakery at Grand Central Station in NY, but dunno if it still exists - haven't seen any since then... and I'm in NY every year for the last couple of years, or LA. Next time I'll be in Vancouver, Canada, I'm looking forward to find a bakery there.

Paddy W. Dann warst du noch nie in der Türkei. Das Wasser hat dort so viel Kohlensäure, dass es eigentlich schon zu viel ist 😂

In America without English you are lost. In Germany, even if your partner does not speak English, there will always be a person who does!

idaas. seiteee Ja, macht es wirklich. 😂😊

idaas. seiteee isso👍😂

idaas. seiteee du sprichst mir aus der Seele

Glücklich ja; stolz ist man aber auf etwas, was man selber geleistet hat ;)

Richard Rozati ich bin trotzdem stolz Deutsche zu sein. Stolz sein kann man auf alles, man muss es nicht selber leisten. Ich kann auch stolz auf meine Freundin oder meine Geschwister sein, dabei hab ich ja auch nichts selber geleistet.

Lily Mmhhhh, yummy, I'm drooling, now I'm hungry... at 2 a.m.! Brot ist doch was Feines. Was wären wir ohne unser Brot! 💕

Was looking for that bread too here in Ireland. Some polish stores have them :)

Brot für 60 cent.. Das ist Müll und kein Brot.

Komm mal nach Japan ! Oh, und schau auf dem Weg dorthin lieber nicht in Indien oder China vorbei :D

Mike8827 besser is 😂 Thailand hat nicht mal richtige Klos 😅 ich könnte da nicht wohnen

Natürlich haben sie in Thailand richtige Toiletten. Abgesehen davon, sind diese "Plumsklos" theoretisch auch noch viel hygenischer muss man doch wenn man richtig zielt nichts berühren und kann den Po mit Wasser reinigen (ich gebe aber zu, dass ich damit auch nicht 100% klar komme).

Chris Thirst für mich sind das keine richtigen Klos und das ist meine Meinung. Da kannst du sagen was du willst, ich finde die trotzdem nicht toll

Ja, aber es gibt dort nicht nur diese Klos, in den etwas größeren Städten habe ich immer westliche Toiletten gehabt. Ok, in einer Herberge in Bangkok hatte ich auch so eine, ich bin aber auch kein Fan.

A proper cream tea is so fucking lovely!

Oh hell YES. Impossible to get scones here, a real pity :(

Scones are very easy to make at home, if you have even basic baking skills.

You don't just need skills, you also need time ... ;)

Um, yeah. About an hour.

Johanna Rofalski was ist an amerikanischer Limonade denn so anders als an deutscher? :)

TheDeadlyKittens Die ist nicht so wie Fanta, die gibt es da natürlich auch, sondern die ist ohne sprudel und schmeckt ganz natürlich zitronig, süß säuerlich! Gibt es dort fast überall und ist einfach super lecker!! im Moment gibt es sowas bei mc donalds das heißt lemon kiss und ist auch sehr lecker! :)

Yeah, German TP is so superior to any of the American brands I've yet discovered... didn't know how bad it was until I knew it could be so much better.

same here.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viennese_coffee_house

What I meant are those small, tiny, "trendy" cafés, which Dana said can be found at every corner in some bigger and even smaller cities throughout Germany nowadays. Those are relatively new. Only in the biggest cities in Germany there are big institutions with a long tradition somewhat similar to a Viennese coffee house. But all the places that I can remember from my youth which came close to those were the "Konditoreien" that were frequented mostly by elderly ladies with funny hats for their daily dose of coffee and cream. Something else that has been around longer than those small independent cafés or coffee shops, though, are what is called "Kneipenrestaurants" - they are relatively big, feature furniture similar to beer halls, and serve everything from breakfast over lunch, coffee and cake to dinner and cocktails. So they are open from early morning till late at night. In some cities some of those may have a status similar to the Viennese coffee houses.

rswear But you can't compare Starbucks with the Cafes in Germany

not at all, but they are a place for little meetings

Starbucks compared to a European Café is like McDonalds compared to a real restaurant.

would you really do a meeting at starbucks?!

I had once a job interview at starbucks. in germany.

Geschenk der Götter!!!

killerbee Bah!xD

German Pig Sushi Rolls! ;)

killerbee Am geilsten ist Mettbrötchen Ihne Brötchen

mit nem kilo Zwiebel :D

*thinks ;-)

*sAme goes

Lovely to hear that but I think the culture clash between britain and northern germany isn't that extrem like northern european countries to the northern ones for example. And if your boyfriend is homesick he can make an easy and fast return flight to london from hamburg ^^ Wish you two the best :)

Didn't you notice the rough cut?

nope

i got tears, cause it was so nice, i think he totally couldn't say a word anymore

Men in general - and probably German men in particular - often have a hard time saying something „sweet“. My guess is, it’s due to a gender-specific emotional incompetence. 😏

Warum nicht größere Steine?

Germans always moans, cause we know it can be better

I am from a country where Public transportation sucks and I have been living in Germany for 5 years. I have lived in huge cities like Berlin, in remote city towns like Kleve and in middle cities like mönchengladbach, I have learn that the transporation varies depending where you live and believe me there has been MANY times I have moaned about it especially when traveling with Deutschebahn. Just because other countries have it worse doesn't excuse the transportation here in Germany to be mediocre for what the standards and expectations should be. It can always be better.

You gotta understand that germans are used to it and just cuz its better than in other countries it still could be better so german will moan till it is perfect. That may sound annoying but the reason why things that were made in Germany got almost always the best quality ever is because most germans are perfectionists (including me) So I understand that people who live in a country where the public transportation isn’t as good get annoyed that we germans sometimes may complain about ours (which is not bad) but please keep in mind it may have a positive affect (or effect? Sry I dunno) in the future. Also... our public transportation isn’t as good as it seems. The trains come late pretty often so that I decided to buy and ride a bike do that I won’t risk getting late for school.

Are U from Germany?

Well, Germans want to be the best......

Alexander Bryant welcome Alexander in Munich
